Vercel

Vercel is a Frontend Cloud platform that handles building, deploying, and scaling modern web applications. They give developers a single platform to push code and go live — no infrastructure headaches. They've built developer tools like Next.js, plus the cloud infrastructure to run them. Their AI Cloud includes an AI Gateway, Sandbox for code execution, and the AI SDK for TypeScript.

The company is backed by serious investors (Accel, Google Ventures, Salesforce) and counts companies like Runway and Leonardo AI as customers. They focus on making deployment as easy as hitting a button, ensuring sites load fast everywhere globally, and keeping the experience accessible for every developer.

For APAC developers specifically, this matters because Vercel's CDN ensures your site is fast whether users are in Singapore, Tokyo, or Sydney. You're not rebuilding for regional performance — it just works.

Their async-first approach and global team mean you can ship on your schedule, not wait for some US-based team. If you're building AI apps, commerce platforms, or anything that needs to scale quick, Vercel removes the boring infrastructure stuff so you focus on the product.
